The unidentified woman was being recorded by a bystander as she approached who sources are saying is her son, saying “are you kidding me?” as she smacked him repeatedly and chased him away from the sight of a protest.

The sighting prompted Baltimore police to call out to other parents, urging them to remove their children from the situation in order to clear the streets. Baltimore has been wracked with peaceful protests and violent rioters in response to the death of Freddie Gray, who died resulting from a severe spinal injury sustained at the hands of police.

A Timeline Of Lives Lost & The #BlackLivesMatters Era

We have much to remember and be thankful for during Black History Month, but there's also much to mourn. Today would've been Trayvon Martin's 20th birthday. The 17-year-old Fla. teen was gunned down by neighborhood watchman George Zimmerman in 2012. The senseless deaths of unarmed Black men haven't stopped: Michael Brown, Eric Garner, and Tamir Rice were all killed in 2014 alone. But public awareness is sky high and our patience has run thin.
People are reflecting on the national and international outcry against police brutality and the festering racial biases that continue to thrive in America. Below, we chronicle the time from Trayvon Martin's murder to the evolution of #BlackLivesMatters. These are moments that will undoubtedly go down in history.
